“Mm, I want to. Who doesn’t want to? It’s a hatred for disfiguring my face—a hatred for breaking my bones.” Xia Ruoxin extended her hand, and there was not a single scar on her white and soft fingers. Even her entire body had no cuts whatsoever. However, half a year ago, she was not even like a dog.

  It had nothing to do with love or anything else. She just did not want those people to be able to walk about freely, enjoy their richness, and live on happily and in ease after hurting her and doing something wrong; making her carry the burden of the crime for the rest of her life that she did not even commit.

  “Okay.” Lu Jinrong walked over and patted her shoulders. “This is truly my sister. Our Lu family will definitely take revenge for all those who cross us. We’ll get back everything they took and make them spit out even if they ate it.”


  He used ‘our family’. Yes, it was ‘our family’. He was clearly telling Xia Ruoxin that the Lu family would also help her get her revenge.

  “Thank you, Brother.” Xia Ruoxin felt that the warmth of the big hand on her shoulders could seemingly still feel the pain in her shoulder blades and the torture of being half-alive the past half a year.

  “Why are you saying thanks?” Lu Jinrong really treated her as her sister because Xia Ruoxin had his sister’s face. However, she had never said anything and nothing about her past. He knew that some revenge must be taken alone. After all, there were some things that outsiders could not step into.

  Let her be. He sighed lightly. In the past, he was troubled when he did not have a sister; now that he had one, he seemed even more troubled.

  In the end, Lu Jinrong arranged for her to go to Hao Han and be his personal assistant. He had also hired a professional to teach her the internal operations of the company and other document-related things.

  After getting in touch with all of these, Xia Ruoxin then finally understood how naive and stupid she was back then. A big company like Chu Enterprise was not something that a small Xia Ruoxin could take down.

  The CEO who can manage such a large company must have a few cards up his sleeves. In times of necessity, these cards would then allow them to be resuscitated.

  Lu Jinrong had them, and so did Chu Lui.

  However, Min Guocheng did not as he had not reached the step of being a fox. To compare his intelligence with Chu Lui, one could only say that he was dumb.

  Xia Ruoxin tugged at her red lips and also her heart.

  It turned out she was used by Chu Lui once again.

  That man, that man who had always talked about love, had actually used her so freely.

  She started from the bottom in Hao Han and was busy almost twenty-four hours a day. Other than learning the sales part of the company, she had to learn French and other languages. She knew English but nothing about French.

  Hao Han was mainly targeting between the French and German markets so other than knowing commonly-used English, she also had to learn French and German.

  Actually, she never knew that a country’s language was just like painting sometimes; and it required talent and hard work of course. When other people were asleep, she was practicing her grammar and memorizing words while reading books in other languages. When other people were lazing in bed, she had already woken up to study.

  Sometimes, she would sleep less than three hours a day and would spend the rest of her time learning in the office, at home, and when she even had to run errands outside. She would have to stand in heels a whole day, and her feet would blister. The blisters might even break, but she still had to stand. As Lu Xiaohua—a woman—no matter where she was, high heels were a symbol of elegance.

  She must do this point and adapt to it as she was not tall so she had to use heels to elevate her presence.

  Just like that until three months later, she actually could miraculously use these two languages to converse simply. What was left was only getting used to and familiar with it. With her current standards, it was enough to be Lu Jinrong’s assistant. She just had to record down what she heard, and for other things, there was Lu Jinrong himself—who was already excellent in five languages.

  However, Xia Ruoxin still felt that it was not enough. When she had nothing to do, she would work and learn at the same time so she improved greatly, especially in her French. Actually, during the half a year when she was hospitalized, Lu Jinrong had already let her come into contact with French.

  At first, she did not know why, but she learned whatever he told her to. Now, she then realized that Lu Jinrong might have long known that they would come to this step; and she would have such a day. Hence, he had already been paving the way for her since then.

  A successful business person would see through a lot of things, more than one would imagine. This was their foresight and also their calculations.

  Like Chu Lui, like Lu Jinrong……

  Other people could see through the next three steps, but they were already thirty steps ahead of others……

  Looking at herself in the mirror, Xia Yixuan turned one round. No matter if it was her intricate makeup or elegant attire, she believed that she would definitely be in the spotlight of this business gathering.

  She sighed lightly.

  Finally, she had walked to this step and had once again become the only woman beside Chu Lui. Now, the two families were also checking on her and Brother Lui’s marriage.

  Even though Chu Lui did not state his stand, and the most intimate they got was only a hug, which she initiated of course. However, she believed that soon—very soon, she would be Mrs. Chu and would get back whatever she had lost.

  Her Brother Lui, her status, and her reputation.

  She pushed open the door, and Chu Lui was standing outside. At this moment, he was wearing a metal-gray Italian handmade western suit; and his sleeve buttons were made with silver gems. It was low-key and classic and also had his unique coldness.

  His clothes had always been like this: it was not much of a show, but from the inside to out, it was all detailed.

  She walked over and hugged Chu Lui’s waist from behind. “Brother Lui, we can go now.”


  “Okay.” Chu Lui pulled away from Xia Yixuan’s hands on his waist and turned around to walk to the door. Xia Yixuan was quite angry as she stomped angrily. No matter how intricate her makeup was, it could not hide her contorted five features.

  Today was a famous artist in the country—Old Mr. Meng Song’s—birthday so the Meng family purposely held a very extravagant party, inviting all the capable businessmen in town.

  Of course, a businessman needed connections; in events like these, many business alliances were made and deals closed in private. Perhaps some men and women would have a romantic encounter after meeting once, and it would turn into nothing afterward.

  When Xia Yixuan hugged Chu Lui’s arm and walked in—as expected, everyone’s gaze was glued onto them.
